Recently I was commissioned to photograph Deanna and Steve’s beautiful family and they wanted to do their session at the Mission San Juan Capistrano. For those not from the area, the Mission is a historic location, one of the first settlements in California. There are a variety of locations on the grounds that lend themselves to fantastic backdrops. Every time I go there, it’s always a new experience as the time of day, the flowers in bloom, the time of year and the weather can give you a variety of choices.
